Spring vs. Foam: Which Mattress Is Right For You?

Did you know that your mattress
is one of the main factors that contribute to getting a good night’s sleep? If
you’re already having trouble sleeping, then you may want to know the
differences between a foam mattress
and a spring mattress. Sleeping on a
supportive mattress will directly affect your lifestyle and how you go about your
daily activities. Thus, it is imperative to ensure you make the most of your
sleep on the right mattress! Let’s take a look at the main differences between
a foam mattress and a spring mattress:

If you’re leaning toward a spring
mattress:

Springs are still being used
because they are quite inexpensive.

There is a misconception that
spring mattresses are supportive and comfortable. However, they do not offer
sufficient pressure point relief.

Despite losing approximately 16%
of its firmness within the first year, a spring mattress can last up to 10+
years

There are a variety of spring
mattresses in almost every price range. The firmer the mattress, the better.

If you’re leaning toward a foam
mattress:

A foam mattress
significantly reduces pressure points. That being said, having less pressure
points will in turn cause less tossing and turning.

Unlike spring
mattresses, memory foam mattresses do not need to be flipped. There is
absolutely no maintenance in this respect.

Allergies are
less likely with a memory foam mattress. Dust mites can only live on the
surface, and not on the inside of the mattress.

Memory foam
mattresses are extremely sensitive to temperature, which means that temperature
will determine how long it takes for the mattress to adjust itself to your
body. The colder the room, the longer it will take the mattress to shape
itself.

Now that you have the pros and
cons for each mattress, you can evaluate your needs and make the right
purchase!
